"In this video I discuss how MGM and Cesar's Entertainment Resort/Casinos were hacked by a ransomware group and had sensitive customer data and company data exfiltrated from their servers. So far Cesar's Entertainment has paid half of the 30 million dollar to keep files from being released by MGM has paid nothing and the hackers are threatening to ruin MGM's reputation with a data leak."

I mean... Do schools and hospitals have that kind of money at all? You attack school with ransomware and then what? Ask them to pay? With what money, lol? Are they going to pay in kids chromebooks? It's far more lucrative to attack something that actually has money
They are a regular targets:
The FBI is investigating a multiple-state hospital ransomware attack
15 healthcare systems have been hit with ransomware attacks in 2023
Schools Are a Top Target of Ransomware Attacks, and It’s Getting Worse
Welp, if you're targeting schools and hospitals, that means, you're pretty fucking stupid. And if you're pretty fucking stupid, then there's a high change you're going to get caught sooner or later. So whatever, lol
I suspect this will change once insurance companies stop giving coverage for ransomware. It's already been happening for a few years.
